What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

[(Anonymous)]

'Best' is purely up to interpretation! Whatever comes to mind works!

Re: What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

There are a lot of bests for me, but I really like the moments in my doll fandom when everybody is squeeing over how cute everything is and just bonding over the excitement. Sometimes, certain items can’t ship to other countries straight from the company website, and whenever someone expresses disappointment over that, there are always at least three people saying that they would be willing to buy the item for that person and ship it to them while only asking for the cost of the item and the shipping in return. If an item is sold out online, people will look for it in store and then pass it on to the people looking for it. I just think it’s really nice.

When something big and unexpected hits and you could go on your tumblr dashboard and find everyone going "what the hell is this" and commenting/reblogging a ton of posts.

My most prevalent example is when Nick moved Korra S3 to online only halfway through the season.

Playing a new game or reading a new book alongside fandom friends and then comparing notes/progress. Obviously, long before the dawn of Youtube.

I miss that. There's so little to be said about it, but it means a lot.

reconnecting with a childhood favorite. it was a series i grew up with, but i was never able to fully enjoy it or get invested in it until a few years ago when i found the episodes online. that was also around the time i fully made the move to ao3, and found a plethora of fic to get caught up on. the hype has worn off now, but that time still means a hell of a lot me.

Getting obsessed with fandom.

Re: What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

[(Anonymous)]

That first six months to a year that I have a new OTP, where I'm just wildly obsessed with them.

Re: What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

Someone got inspired to write a fic based on a really crappy drawing of mine where a m/m ship were drawn in 1920s clothing - and this person wrote up a long one-shot that was set in the prohibition era with gangsters, which was one of the best things I had read.

It kills me that I didn't think to save it - it was posted up on Y!gallery and went down with the rest of the site. But still it was kind of cool to have given inspiration to make something like that.

HP fandom between OotP and HBP. It was so huge and literally anything was game.

Re: What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

When someone (unprompted) made a banner for my fic (early days of posting, so I was highly honored and it was actually a really nice banner!).

Now my dream is for someone to send me the fan mix they made for any fic I've written lol

Re: What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

[(Anonymous)]

I was the only person writing fic for a rarepair, and then suddenly the ship was made canon on the show (and it was well-done, too!). Me & my established fandom friends were popping bottles and welcoming a bunch of new shippers that year, and it was awesome. :)

Flying across the country to meet up with fandom friends and then squeeing over our fave for a few days while going out drinking and pigging out in some great bars and restaurants!

Re: What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

Being a GSR shipper when Grissom/Sara was made canon was pretty delightful. Especially because it wasn't one of those ships that was obviously going to become canon eventually. For years it seemed like it probably wasn't going to be canon ever.

The abundance of funny memes

Re: What Was The Best Moment In Fandom For You?

First getting involved in McShep. There was SO MUCH cool art and amazing fics and just crazy shit. I miss it but I don't know how to go back. /tear

Being part of a cosplay group that reenacted the opera from Final Fantasy VI onstage in front of an audience. Childhood dream that I would never have expected to be able to fulfill? Fulfilled. <3

(And no I wasn't Celes. I was Prince Ralse. I got to have a choreographed duel with Draco. It was SO MUCH FUN.)

Going to Tokyo and shopping in secondhand anime shops. Kyoto and Osaka had some finds, too, but Tokyo was fucking boss.

Which genre do you most often read or watch?

[(Anonymous)]

Fantasy, science fiction, horror, western, drama, romance, et cetera... it may not necessarily be your 'favorite' genre of media but which one do you find yourself most often exploring or returning to? Why?

Re: Which genre do you most often read or watch?

[(Anonymous)]

Horror. It's the most relatable for me, what with having seen some shit throughout the years. I also find it cathartic; it's easier to deal with terrible events in fiction than it is reality.

Re: Which genre do you most often read or watch?

[philstar22]

Fantasy tops, followed by science fiction that has a fantasy feel, followed by fantasy horror and scifi horror and straight up science fiction.

Re: Which genre do you most often read or watch?

[kaijinscendre]

I read mostly horror. I'll read like 1-2 books a year and then during fall, I will read 6-7 horror novels.

I mostly watch drama.

What Was The Most Romantic Scene For You In Media?

[(Anonymous)]

Be it from a movie, book, game, or whatever, what scene struck you personally as the most romantic? 'Romance' is of course purely subjective - it isn't necessarily the same for everyone and that's totally cool~
